Spicy Buffalo Ranch Chicken Burgers

Makes 8 chicken burgers

Fried Chicken

4 chicken breasts

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

1/4 teaspoon cayenne

Canola oil, for frying

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

3/4 cup Frank's Hot Sauce

1/2 cup butter

Ranch Dressing

3/4 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream

3 tablespoons chives

3 tablespoons parsley

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper

8 brioche buns

2 tomatoes, sliced

1 cup lettuce

Butterfly and split chicken breasts in half, making 8 portions. Place the chicken in a large freezer bag and cover with buttermilk. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper and give the bag a shake, to get the chicken coated. Place in the fridge overnight.

Next, make the ranch dressing. Combine buttermilk, mayo, sour cream, chives, parsley and lemon juice in a bowl, and whisk together until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the dressing with cling wrap and place in the fridge until you're ready to build your burgers.
